As well as reconsidering the best user experience, I took visual inspiration from the classic design of vinyl record players to give the app a tactile quality.

The current track and queue are in a more intuitive position, and the vinyl bed provides a convenient place for the user to interact with the music and see their position in a song.

Subtle interaction effects delight the user, and add to the tactile quality of the app. Panes slide on top of each other like a stack of vinyl, allowing the user to quickly swipe back to a previous screen.
